What a set for the Renegades! After stepping away last week, SoT returned to the Battleground in this set and RNG popped off so much they swept the set 2-0.

But this time, Radiance had clearly done their homework and capitalized on Ghost's mistakes. Highlights include: PBM's clutch Herc pull + blink combo in Game 1, sam4soccer2 playing a deadly Pele in Game 2, and some absolutely brutal comfort pick performances from BMT on Agni, Adapting on Hun Batz, and CycloneSpin on Rama.

Renegades was playing for the final seat in the playoffs in this set, and they didn’t leave anything to chance. They started off strong in Game 1 with an early kill lead and a 3k advantage heading into the mid game, easily securing the first three Furies of the game and a Pyromancer to boot. By the time they topped the Gold Fury at 23 minutes in, they’d swung an 8k experience lead and were slowly choking out any chance that Obey had to get back into the set. RNG found three clean picks at the Fire Giant and secured the buff for free. Shortly after Obey’s fallen members had respawned, RNG committed a full blown deicide that blew Obey’s defenses wide open. RNG rushed the left Phoenix, burned it down, then took the Titan and the Game 1 win at just 30 minutes in. 

RNG saw another great start in Game 2, swinging a quick 2k lead in their favor by just 7 minutes in. Even in the early game, Obey’s jungle wasn’t safe -- RNG kept clearing enemy camp after enemy camp to freeze out any farm Obey might find on their own side of the map. RNG stole the Pyromancer right out from underneath them, then just...kept on stealing objectives as often as they could. RNG easily secured the Oni Fury at 17 minutes in, then just a few minutes later found a deicide onto Obey that let them clear the rest of the map. They burned the left Phoenix, grabbed another deicide, and finally pushed into the throne room to take the Titan and the win with just 23 minutes on the clock. 


SSG started strong in Game 1, thanks in large part to absolutely perfect rotations that helped them take the upper hand of several early fights. As they rolled into the mid game, they stretched out a 5k gold lead that only got bigger once they got the upper hand of a quick 2-1 scuffle and secured the Gold Fury. SSG just kept dominating every team fight, and Ghost couldn’t seem to find any way to answer back. With a huge 15k lead by 25 minutes, SSG cleared the entire right lane and burned the Phoenix to start putting pressure on Ghost’s base. They rotated back toward the Fire Giant and took it for free, then went right on over to the mid lane and burned the middle Phoenix as well. SSG briefly reset but soon collapsed on the right Phoenix once again. Ghost put up a good defense and chunked SSG’s health enough that they forced another reset. But as the next scuffle broke out around the Fire Giant pit, Cherryo’s Kali followed a wave of minions into Ghost’s throne room and managed to backdoor the Titan before anyone could defend, handing SSG the Game 1 win. 

In Game 2, it was Ghost that got off to a good start and a strong kill lead, showing much more aggression than they did in Game 1. They found a very early Gold Fury at just 8 minutes in that help them pull out a solid 2k lead. By 15 minutes in, Ghost still had pretty strong map control and took the Oni Fury for a little extra pressure. With the game momentum swinging heavily in their favor and their kill count getting higher and higher, Ghost moved in on the Fire Giant at 22 minutes. They secured the objective, but SSG tried to contest and Ghost collapsed on them quickly, securing the full deicide thanks to a quadra kill on sam4soccer2’s Thanatos. With no one left to stand in their way, SSG rushed down the right lane to burn the Phoenix and shred the Titan to tie up this set at 24 minutes. 

Game 3 was an absolute blowout. Things got off to a pretty close start with some really even team fights, but soon SSG took a strong kill lead and didn’t let it go until the Titan fell. A quick 3-0 for SSG gave them the Gold Fury at 10 minutes in. Another 3-0 engagement at 16 minutes swung a 6k lead in SSG’s favor. At just 15 minutes in, SSG was burning Ghost’s left Phoenix down and rotated over to the Primal Fury to secure that too. It was clear that SSG wanted to end this quickly and make sure they completely shut down Ghost before they had any chance to bring this game back. SSG took the Fire Giant for free at 18 minutes, and not long after found another four unanswered kills on Ghost. With Ghost’s base left mostly defenseless, SSG walked right past the middle Phoenix and went for the Titan instead, taking this game in just 20 minutes without a single kill on the board for Ghost. 


This item allows the owner to absorb a single hard Crowd Control effect.

PASSIVE - Protects you from a single hard Crowd Control effect or Root once every 70 seconds. When this occurs, you gain 1s of Crowd Control immunity.

Game 1 was pretty straightforward. PK took an early lead thanks to some serious aggression in jungle and duo. Their 2k lead quickly stretched to a 6k lead after a 3-1 engagement that fell in their favor, and PK just kept on picking advantageous team fights that left RNG reeling. Around the 22 minute mark, PK grabbed a free Primal Fury, rotated through mid and found the upper hand of a 3-1 trade, then continued their journey to secure the Fire Giant as well. After clearing the map of nearly every remaining RNG objective, PK reset and bided their time until the next FG spawn. Once they had it secured, they pushed toward RNG’s left Phoenix, toppling the bird and securing a deicide in the process. With nothing left to stand in their way, PK closed out Game 1 in 32 minutes. 

Game 2 was an insane ride from start to finish. RNG looked to shut PK down early with some relentless aggression, putting 8 kills on the board in just 8 minutes. With a 3k lead in hand as they transitioned into the mid game, RNG secured the first two Furies of the match and were sitting pretty as they looked for the first Fire Giant as well. After securing the buff, they pushed the entire right lane and even burned down the right Phoenix. But their next FG attempt wouldn’t go so smoothly, as ScaryD stole it right out from underneath them and PK turned the fight around to grab a 2-1 trade. With the game momentum suddenly in their favor, PK converted that to a left Phoenix secure and a 3-3 trade in the ensuing scuffle. With 37 minutes on the clock, it was anyone’s game. PK found another great 3-2 trade at the next Fire Giant, but were forced to reset and came back a few minutes later to secure it. Sensing an opening, RNG made a cheeky backdoor attempt at PK’s base, but PK somehow caught wind of what they were planning and quickly recalled to defend. They claimed three RNG lives, then clapped back with a siege of their own. PK took the Titan and the clean 2-0 set sweep in 47 minutes! 


Ghost kicked off this set with a strong start in Game 1, taking an early 2k lead and securing the Gold Fury at just 11 minutes in. Then they just...didn’t let go of that lead for the rest of the game! Thanks to some clutch rotations and impeccable teamwork between Twig, sam2soccer2, and fineokay, Ghost stretched their lead to 6k by the mid game. After a quick 3-1 engagement at the FG pit, the buff fell in Ghost’s favor and they cleared the entire right lane. On the next FG spawn, Ghost easily secured the objective and snowballed an even bigger 14k lead. With the buff in hand, they split pushed the left and middle Phoenixes. Radiance had only a few defenses left, and Ghost quickly overcame them to take the Game 1 win at 27 minutes. 

Radiance answered back in Game 2. Gold/XP differentials stayed almost dead even until 14 minutes in, when Radiance found an early deicide at the Gold Fury pit and took the objective to stretch out a 2k gold lead. From there on, that lead snowballed out of control. Radiance found four free kills in right, then rotated to take the first Fire Giant at 17 minutes. With a 6k lead in hand at 21 minutes, Radiance’s team fight potential was proving too strong for Ghost to answer back. In the next FG encounter, Radiance wiped out all of Ghost for the deicide, secured the objective for free, then rushed down the right lane to topple the Titan and tie up the set in 27 minutes. 

Game 3 was another 27-minute beatdown, this time falling in favor of Ghost. Ghost popped off with a very aggressive start, quickly putting Radiance at a 4k deficit and taking a 9-2 kill lead. By 16 minutes in, the situation had further devolved for Radiance as Ghost pulled ahead by 6k. Ghost secured the first Fire Giant of the game at 20 minutes, and took a 3-1 trade over Radiance to boot. Ghost began their siege on the left Phoenix and got the bird, but lost three lives as Radiance forced them to reset. Ghost secured the next FG for free shortly after it respawned, and made another attempt at breaking Radiance’s base. Soon enough, both the left and middle Phoenixes fell. Ghost had to bide their time just a little due to some low health bars, then finally regrouped and took down the Titan to wrap up this set with a 2-1 win. 


What a set! Game 1 was a wild ride, with Rival being in the driver’s seat for most of the 42-minute slog. We saw a relatively even start that rolled into a slight advantage for RVL by the mid game. SNG found a 3-1 trade to rebound their deficit, but Rival answered back with a 3-2 to reclaim the lead and swing it up to 3k in their favor. For the rest of the mid game and into the late game, RVL found the upper hand in every engagement and the objective shred between Twig’s Olorun and PandaCat’s Ullr proved too strong for Sanguine to contest. By 22 minutes RVL had the Fire Giant and a 7k lead, but Netrioid’s valiant split push created some map pressure that RVL couldn’t ignore. RVL overextended while trying to siege SNG’s base, but SNG couldn’t find any meaningful conversion off their picks. Another Fire Giant at 27 minutes snowballed Rival’s lead up to a whooping 10k and they looked for another siege -- but they failed to find much and SNG made a 3-2 trade in their favor to keep their birds standing. An Oni Fury for RVL started to put even more minion pressure on SNG, but SNG was undeterred and even managed to push RVL out of their next FG attempt and secure the objective for themselves. As we hit the 40 minute mark and the gold differential became almost meaningless, RVL secured a second EFG and ran a 5-man siege toward SNG’s right Phoenix. RVL secured the objective but lost two and had to reset. SNG sensed an opportunity and ran it down mid, burning the Phoenix and then the Titan for a great turnaround and a Game 1 win. 

Rival came out of the gate with strong early map pressure in Game 2, thanks in large part to Twig’s Poseidon in the mid lane. A brutal 3-1 trade in the mid lane for Rival swung the gold lead up 4k in their favor, and they secured a Primal Fury off the back of it to ramp up their map pressure. As Rival tried to look for the Fire Giant, SNG pulled off an amazing steal to take the objective for themselves but RVL made them pay for it with a 2-1 trade. On the next Fire Giant spawn, RVL got the objective and a three picks that they extended to a delayed deicide, though they lost three of their own in the process. SNG secured the Primal Fury at 27 minutes, but it wasn’t enough to stop RVL’s snowball. The next 5v5 fight saw SNG lose three members. Not wanting to waste any time or let SNG find a chance for another comeback, RVL ran it down mid to burn the Titan and tie up this set 1-1 at 29 minutes. 

Game 3 had us on the edge of our seats from start to finish. RVL found a small early lead once again, but it wasn’t the usual chokehold they usually have on the early game. SNG found a clutch GF steal and a pick at 7 minutes to keep even up the deficit. SNG found another great engagement at the Fury pit a little while later, securing a 2-1 trade and the Oni Fury at 15 minutes. Though SNG was 2k up, they started to make some mistakes that helped RVL found their way back. RVL found a great 4-2 trade that they extended into a full deicide, then secured the Primal Fury at 21 minutes to swing up a 1k lead. SNG clapped back with a 4-1 trade thanks to a triple from Sheento, and they secured the FG for free. At the next FG engagement, SNG started things off with a 2-1 trade, but then RVL found 4 and forced the objective reset anyway. With SNG up 4k gold at 32 minutes, RVL secured the Oni Fury to put some added minion pressure on the map. Rival attempted the FG a few minutes later, but a 2-1 trade forced them to reset. SNG baited out another fight at the FG around 37 minutes, and found the upper hand with three clean picks. With only two men left standing on RVL and a massive archer wave coming in left, SNG burned the left Phoenix then collapsed on the Titan to take this set 2-1. 


Game 1 of this set fell heavily in Rival’s favor. After an even start, RVL found a 3-1 trade at 10 minutes and secured the Gold Fury of its back, extending a comfortable 3k lead for themselves. Renegades managed to find some scattered kills here and there to keep from falling too far behind, but they wouldn’t be able to keep pace for long. At 25 minutes, RVL grabbed a full deicide in the mid lane and took the Fire Giant for free. RNG tried to defend as Rival tore into their base and found two strong picks, but they overcommitted to the fight and lost four. AwesomeJake408 attempted a heroic one-man defense on his Horus, but he fell almost as quickly as the Titan while Rival picked up the first win of this set. 

RVL got off to another strong start in Game 2, finding some good early picks and a cozy 2k lead by 8 minutes in. From there on out, this game was an absolute bloodbath. Averaging about 2 kills a minute, RNG and RVL traded blow after blow, but RVL remained in the lead throughout. RNG found a great Gold Fury steal at 14 minutes, but RVL made them pay with two lives. Still in the driver’s seat, RVL found a free Fire Giant and a strong 10k lead by the 20 minute mark. Then RNG stopped their momentum dead in its tracks as they found a 5-1 trade at their left Phoenix. With the tides turned momentarily in their favor, RNG took the Fire Giant and the Oni Fury to keep hold of their lead. Suddenly RVL was on the back foot after dominating all game, and RNG was out for blood. RNG secured a deicide at RVL’s left Phoenix, then burned down the Titan to tie up this set 1-1 at 32 minutes. 

In Game 3, it was RNG who found a good start thanks to some early pressure. Carrying a 2k gold lead with them into the mid game, RNG started to pressure the first Gold Fury. Rival held them off, getting one pick and the objective to boot. As the mid mid game turned into the late game, RVL kept finding the upper hand in engagements and slowly whittled away RNG’s early lead until there was nothing left. At 26 minutes, RVL had pulled out a 3k lead over their opponent and looked poised to swing the game momentum completely in their favor. RNG found some good team fights and a key 2-1 trade at the Fire Giant that kept the pressure off for a little while, but it wouldn’t be enough. RVL took a great engagement at the Fire Giant pit and -- thanks in large part to a triple from sam4soccer2’s Awilix -- they grabbed both the deicide and the objective. RVL barreled down the right lane, burned the Phoenix, and took the Titan for the 2-1 set win at 34 minutes. 


Most fans didn’t come into this set expecting a Game 3, but that’s what we got! Radiance opened this set with a dominant performance. Renegades found some good early game pressure, then Radiance found their footing toward the mid game and edged out a 3k lead. At 23 minutes, Radiance found a good engagement at the Fire Giant that ended in a 2-1 trade and an objective secure in their favor. Shortly after its next respawn they secured it again, and by 32 minutes in Radiance had a 20k lead while Renegades had no T1 or T2 objectives left standing. With the final FG buff of the game to bolster them, Radiance pushed into the throne room and took down RNG’s Titan for the Game 1 win. 

In Game 2, Renegades put all their focus on shutting down Radiance’s strong early game and found some success. Their early 2k lead quickly snowballed to a 6k lead by the mid game, which RNG then lengthened into a 9k lead with a Fire Giant secure and two kills at 21 minutes. Lasbra had an amazing performance on Pele, and Radiance simply couldn’t find an answer to all the pressure he was putting on them. At 27 minutes, RNG secured a free Fire Giant and started poking the right enemy Phoenix. Radiance was able to defend for a moment -- but then they lost two members in the ensuing fight and Renegades was able to successfully re-engage to secure the objective. RNG couldn’t quite end there, but they bided their time until the next Fire Giant spawn. With the buff successfully secured, RNG made their final push at 35 minutes and forced this set to three games. 

Game 3 was much more back-and-forth than the others in this set. RNG found an early kill lead, but gold and experience fell in Radiance’s favor thanks to their strong objective control. Things stayed relatively quiet until a dance began at the Primal Fury. RNG found a 3-1 trade near the Fury pit at 25 minutes, and attempted to secure the objective. But Benji zoned them out and forced the reset. Both teams clashed again when Renegades made a second attempt at the objective -- and while Renegades won the fight, Radiance was able to secure the objective. When Radiance found a clean 3-0 fight at the Fire Giant it looked like they might secure the objective and take hold of this game for good, but a fateful taunt from Benji’s Athena forced Venenu into making an insane FG steal with his Raijin dash. This turned the tides in RNG’s favor. Radiance found a great defense at their right Phoenix, and left one man to defend their base while the rest of the squad went to secure Fire Giant. But when Radiance attempted to find a 3-man fight in the jungle to slow RNG’s advance, they finally imploded. With only two members left to defend the Titan, Radiance was quickly overwhelmed and RNG secured the 2-1 victory. 


SSG must have watched eUnited’s insane objective control from yesterday, because they drafted a heavy objective secure comp. Things got off to a fairly even start, until eUnited edged out a slight lead around the mid game. After a good fight at the Gold Fury that ended with three dead on SSG and a free objective secure for EUN, it looked this squad was starting to snowball. But then SSG found a great fight in the right lane, took two lives and a T2 tower, then took the Fire Giant on the back of that play. It seemed like SSG had swung the game’s momentum in their favor, until EUN found a clutch engagement in right and took down four members of SSG. eUnited tried to push down mid, but they weren’t able to burn down the Titan quickly enough. They tried to retreat just a little to late, and SSG punished them by claiming three lives. Thinking they had found their perfect opportunity to end, SSG pushed the mid Phoenix and tried to take the Titan. But an absolutely incredible defense (and a quadra-kill) from Hurriwind’s Morrigan stopped SSG in their tracks, and eUnited was finally able to take the first win of this set. 

In Game 2, eUnited looked much more dominant. In spite of an early kill lead for SSG, EUN kept a slight gold/XP lead throughout the early to mid game thanks to their methodical objective control. Even though EUN kept losing fights, it almost didn’t matter. At 23 minutes, EUN moved in for the Fire Giant but lost two members in the fight that followed. But SSG just couldn’t seem to find their footing in this one. EUN found a 3-1 trade at 27 minutes, another 3-0 trade at 31 minutes, then secured a full deicide at the right Phoenix. SSG simply couldn’t defend with only one member up, and EUN burned down the Titan to sweep this set 2-0. 


Radiance was favored going into this match thanks to their undefeated record, but Rival wasn’t going to let them keep it for long. In Game 1, Rival punished some early overconfidence from Radiance and took a slight early lead with a few key picks. From that moment on, Rival kept about a 5k gold lead throughout the mid game and never once lost control. They secured their first Fire Giant at 24 minutes, then started pressuring the mid Phoenix not long after -- but they weren’t quite able to find the game-ending siege they were looking for. As soon as the Enhanced Fire Giant spawned, Rival secured that objective with little protest from Radiance, and once again pushed down the mid lane. This time Radiance wasn’t able to hold their ground, and Rival finally brought Radiance’s winning streak to an end by taking the Game 1 victory. 

Game 2 was almost exactly the same, but Rival somehow looked even more dominant this time around! With another strong early start and a comfortable 8k lead by the mid game, it looked like Rival might be able to close this one out pretty early. They went for the Fire Giant with the end in sight, but at the last moment Benji stole the objective away with his Amaterasu and kept Radiance in the fight. But it wasn’t enough to stop Rival’s momentum -- with a 10k gold lead by 20 minutes, they were knocking on Radiance’s door. At 23 minutes, sam4soccer2 pulled out an insane MVP play that saw him solo both Adapting AND the Phoenix, and Rival was able to push into the Titan room and clean up this set 2-0. 


Last time these two rosters met on the Battleground, it was for the SWC Grand Finals. But this time around, Team Rival exacted their revenge. 

Rival got off to a good start in Game 1, but the Knights held strong and managed to turn the lead in their favor by 24 minutes in, when they secured the first Fire Giant of the game. Rival kept their defenses strong though, and we saw two total stallouts at the next Fire Giant respawn. It looked like we might be hitting a stalemate until PK found a great team fight at 35 minutes. With three members of Rival down, PK stormed down mid to shred the Titan and secure the first win of the set. 

Game 2 got off to a pretty slow start, but Rival had an extremely aggressive draft that quickly gave them an early lead. They started to feel themselves a little too much though, and extended just a bit too far at an early Fire Giant attempt. PK punished them and took 3 lives as payment, but it wasn’t enough to stop Rival’s momentum. Rival secured the Fire Giant at 31 minutes in, then cleared nearly every objective off the map before resetting and looking to end. Just a few moments later, they barrelled down the left lane, nabbed a quick deicide, and tied up the set 1-1. 

As dominant as Rival looked in Game 2, they turned up the heat even more in Game 3. With a strong early lead in hand, they were poking at T2 objectives by just 16 minutes in. Five short minutes later, PK had lost every tower objective and only had one kill on the board. Rival successfully secured the Fire Giant and began their Phoenix siege at 25 minutes, deleting four members of PK from the map and taking the final win of the set.

After selecting a target area, Jormungandr flies into the air, diving down and crashing into enemies as his body then slams into the ground. He must travel 2 more times.
When Jormungandr Emerges and Submerges during this ability, he knocks up Enemies and with each Submerge he leaves behind a toxic cloud.

Jormungandr is so large that he cannot be affected by Hard Displacement. Instead, he gets Dazed, a fading, non-cleansable slow that increases the damage he takes for the duration. Any Attack speed past base speeds up the recharge rate of Jormungandr's Basic Attack. Jormungandr's Basic Attacks do not proc item hit effects.
